Focus Stacks: a photo stacker that stays in your browser

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-based tool that merges focus-bracketed photos into one image with sharpness across the scene.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The tool asks users to select every frame from a single focus bracket, then aligns the series and chooses the sharpest source region for each part of the resulting image. Its format list extends from common web images to camera RAW files such as CR3, NEF, ARW, and RAF, with the additional constraint that frames share a size and format. The page illustrates the process with a seven-frame example and states that the work happens in the browser.
